Not your typical baby mama

"That was Nora", Joanne was alarmed by the screaming as she looked towards the bathroom door.

"I'll check on her", Alice said as she got up from the stool.

Her steps were full of haste as she walked to the door. She grabbed the door handle and twisted it open but it didn't budge. She knocked instead. "Nora? Are you alright in there?"

Silence. Alice looked at Joanne worriedly before knocking once more. "Nora?"

"I'm fine. I saw an insect.... Don't mind me. I'll be right out", she finally answered.

"Are you sure you're alright?" Alice was still worried even after getting the response.

"Yes. I'm fine!"

"Okay." Alice looked at Joanne and shrugged before walking back to the seat.

Was it really an insect? It sounded more serious. Meanwhile, Nora had found herself pressed against the wall and George's strong body pressed against hers. She was lost in his eyes as they stood with their faces barely a breath away from each other.

She blinked once and finally snapped out of her trance. She pushed him and pulled down her dress. George also fixed his trousers and finally faced her. If George had not moved to her side to silence her, they would both be exposed. But she was embarrassed hence why she was glaring at him and breathing hard in fury. She marched towards him and jabbed his chest with a finger.

"You pervert! You'd jump on any opportunity, wouldn't you?" She whisper shouted at him.

"Pervert?" He shouted back in the same tone as he swiftly grabbed her hand. "It was you who walked in on me not the other way."

"Oh please! You were practically waiting for me to come in here", she looked at him in disdain.

George took a step forward and she subconsciously took one back. "Do you really think you're that special?"

"Then are you? Well, I got news for you, you're not my type."

"Well then, what is your type?" He moved even closer to her.

Silence. They stared at each other. George could not believe he had just asked that question. Nora could not believe how hot he was just now when he asked. She found herself blushing under his watch and he could not peel his gaze away from her. She closed her eyes and shook her head, snapping out of the ridiculous situation.

"None of your business, how do we get out of here?" She asked when she opened her eyes.

"Same way you got it in", he said with a smirk.

Her brows went up in shock. Was he looking for them both to be embarrassed? She was not going to subject herself to such embarrassment. George, however, could practically guess her thoughts as he smirked.

A few minutes later, Joanne and Alice heard the sound of a flashing toilet and soon Nora exited the toilet. She smiled at the two women as she walked over.

"You alright?" Alice asked.

"Yes."

Alice was about to speak when the other door opened. It was the door to the rooms bathroom. George stepped out with wet hair but the same clothes.

"I was wondering where you were", Joanne said with a smile. "You dont have clothes to change into?"

"They're at the hotel. I'll go get them later", he said.

Nora still could not believe he had pulled such a stunt to save them both. They were at the top most floor but he managed to get out of the toilet window and slip into the bathroom using it's window. What was his identity? Who is this George guy?

She felt her heart skip a beat when he gave her a quick glance before settling in the lounge. He took out his phone and started looking at it. No one saw the smile that was on Joanne's face as she looked at the two young people.

The next day

Gwen woke up bright and early and got ready for work. She paid extra attention to her appearance. She looked alluring in her pantsuit with matching heels and a bold red lipstick. She and Peter were spending most of their time at the factory where they were producing the new drug. But today was very special. Because.....

Peter paced around his room whilst holding his phone to his ear. He had dialed for home, specifically Shauna's line, but it had been ringing non-stop. Did something happen? She always picked up on the second or third ring.

"Dad?"

"Kaden? Where's your mom?" He asked as soon as he recognized his other son's voice.

"She's in the bathroom."

"Oh. Are you guys ready for school?"

,m "Yes, mom is dropping us off", Kyle answered this time. Peter now realized that he had been put on speaker.

"What are you boys doing with my phone?" Shauna's voice echoed in the background.

"It's Dad", Kyle said.

Peter patiently waited although he was in a hurry. Shauna was taking forever to answer. He had no clue that she was debating whether to take the call or hang up.

"Hello."

"Hey, are you alright? You haven't been responding to my text messages. Is everything okay?" He asked sweetly. He has been updating her on work and she never responded.

"I've been busy."

He nodded to himself in understanding. Things could get hectic for her especially with two boys she needed to prepare for school. But what about the other times the kids were not there? He could also tell she was not in a good mood so he decided not to provoke her.

"I just wanted to tell you that our big boss is personally visiting the factory today. The next few days will be more hectic, I may not be as available", he said in an apologetic tone.

"Okay."

Peter expected her to say something else but Shauna was silent. If he did something, she would have said something to him. He refused to believe that she had been ignoring him because it wasn't like her. Could she be sick?

Even when she was, she always had something to say but this time... It was him doing the talking. And on calls like these, she would pick up on his nervousness and she would calm him down.

"I miss you."
